Round 17 v tigers pre game discussion

Well he sees it as a sin.
Sinning is evil.
I’m sure he hates evil things.

I don't know since I'm not a believer and I'm not IF. Purely from observation I doubt that he hates sin or sinners. He tries to avoid sin and convert sinners but hate not.

Spoiler warning: she won't, but you won't do anything about it.

I wouldn't know. I only squirt Y chromosomes it seems.

 

[Oscarman]

Refs going to give us a chance against #benji300?

Probably because you're such a man you don't even have an X chromosome.

It would appear so. I've managed 3 spouts and zero money boxes.

How bloody good was that eh. Props to Taka. What a great effort. I have written him off as a dud many times but today he was sensational The Player I always knew he could be but rarely is.
I have spent the arvo with my Tiger supporting brother, drinking many excellent craft beers and watching the game. We had a rumble and my glasses (reading) are now mangled and f**ked. Well worth it for the win.
Time to fire up the bbq and cook some 700+g ribeyes and let the good times flow.. While I rub it right in to that merkin. Whoooohhooooooooo!

Moses kicking game was on tonight. As was Reeds. Kick chase still ordinary though

 

[84 Baby]

I figure we’ll need 5 from 8 from here to play finals. 4 from 8 might too depending on for/against

As was Takas!

Couldn't agree more. I said weeks ago that Moses needs to mix his kicking game up between a singularly high kicking game and a long and low kicking game. Tonight he did both.
I even liked the short kicking game towards the touch line. It kept the Tigers deep in their half at stages.
Also agree on our chase. It was poor, but the game was played at pace, so maybe the lads were conserving their energy. I'm not sure, but we certainly could have kick/chased better.

 

[84 Baby]

I think next game will go long way to whether we play finals. Manly are probably the best performing-to-relative-skill side ATM

 

[Bandwagon]

4 from eight ( 28 points ) will be enough

Well the kick chase wasn’t as awful as say the Dragons game but it’s not good enough to win a premiership. Especially off the back of some good kicks, we could have easily ground the Tigers out today. I can only recall them kicking twice from inside their own 40, which is usually a sign of a good chase and maintaining of pressure

No doubt.
We are a long way from getting the basics to a higher level, and premiership winning type play, but we did what we had to day today to grind out a win, and I thought it was good to see some changes in our kicking tactics.

Why is the Pre-Game thread still open? It should've been turned off for comments when the Game Day Thread was started..

Actually I’ve had a look at draw. It may even be less. The next 3 or so weeks will determine it. A lot of the teams in logjam behind us play each other so if we can keep winning and they steal points off one another and 3 of those teams can’t break away then it could be less

Reeds kicks especially. One of them with a decent defending set turned the game in 1st half

Why did I even bother trying?

@Bazal @I’m a loser baby... @The Silverdale Phantom help me out here

Yep. There was certainly a change in kicking game tactics today and it worked better.
A good mix of high kicks and a long kicking game. We hadn't seen much of that before during this season.

That was a good win.Sadly let down by the actions of certain folks who ruin the forum for everyone else based on a dumb idea no one likes.
